YAAAY! <--- That was my first reaction xD
I just went and read all the chapters and I really love this series!
“Of course my lord,” answered Jarrod, who when Arthur wasn’t facing him looked straight at Merlin and rolled his eyes. It took all of Merlin’s will power to not laugh.

I laughed so hard at that bit xD
This is great, I'm looking forward to the rest! ♥

you totally make me so curious who exactly this Jarrod is!

I'm curious to see how far the consequences of that magic go. And why Bedivere would call Merlin lord. And whether Morgana will be able to manage Uther... Really, I'm just really interested in seeing the rest of this story!

Wow! I'm almost without words!
I read all the chapters together, this's a great story, really. I absolutely loved with all myself the bit where Arthur's knights are ready to face the king and not let him have Merlin. I hoped in a full pardon and finally comprehension from Uther but now they have to pretend Merlin is death... so I'm really curious where all this will takes them...and Merlin will have back the magic that, I think, he pushed in Arthur to save him? *curious, curious*
This is also the first investigative fic I have ever read in Merlin fandom and you're very good at it. I like Jarrod <3 hope he'll be useful ... uhm, and I was *almost* without words XDDDDD

Well done so far. I'm really curious to see how Merlin would be hidden from the court since Arthur has declared him dead. Also the investigation parts were lovely. A mystery!

Great!
